Worms? Bleh. Sorry, I have no faith that any Worms games will be as innovative and fun as 2/Armageddon (I say that 'cuz IMO Worms 2 showed us something nice, Armageddon took us there).

Alien Hominid? Urgh! I have this for the original Xbox. Looks even more like a cheap flash game. Is it still an absolute rip off of Metal Slug? It's been a while but I think the original Xbox game looked less-Flash like than the 360 version.

I love mini golf games arcade-y ones that behave more like fancy Snooker games than actual golf... gold

Well considering they are taking Worms back to 2D I have complete faith in it. I mean... 2 was the last one, with Armageddon and World Party being basically "expansions".

This one is more (or less) of the same... they are reducing the weapons down a bit, iirc, taking out some that aren't used much or unbalance the game... I'm sure it'll pretty much be like WWP.

The announced lineup had me really disappointed. The only one I'm somewhat interested in is Symphony of the Night because I'm curious if they added new extras or online play to it. Otherwise I already own the game and I own Alien Hominid. Everything else is bleh.

I wanted to get my hands on Castlevania, but I think I've been spoiled by Aria and Dawn's incredibly good animations. I find it hard playing Aria after Dawn... Probably be even worse with SoTN. I'd love to try it some day though but on a much better 2D controller (PS1?).
